Chapter 299 The Winner Takes Everything

At the end of the three quarters, the Pistons and the Pacers still had a 12-point difference. Although the Pacers had tried their best, they still couldn't get the score back to within [-] points. What made the score difference even more desperate was that Miller and O'Neal couldn't keep up with their physical strength, and they couldn't continue to the fourth quarter.

It was slightly different from what was expected, but Detroit still won the first victory. In the fourth quarter, Carlisle had used the main players alternately to prevent them from being injured due to an overly intense game. The old Brown here also followed suit, and replaced him when Lin Sa was full of resentment.

Lin Sa wanted to scold someone, why did you go so early, why did you go so long ago, I've already hit the card, and now I can't use up all my strength, why do you replace me?
With this kind of begging and dissatisfied face, Old Brown just ignored him, seeing him a lot.

Max’s younger brother was sent to replace Lin Sa, and all the main players of the Pistons played in turn to further strengthen the cooperation between Max and the main lineup. Now the old Brown does not require Max to have a good scoring performance, as long as he can restrain the opponent’s scorer.

The Pistons have no shortage of defense, but they are the ones connecting defense and offense. In this regard, Max can be used as an extremely shrunken version of Lin Sa. In fact, when he is not drawing cards, Max's performance on the court is indeed not much worse than Lin Sa. What he lacks is only the shooting style of 0.0.

The Pacers surrendered and lost half, and the old Brown didn't kill them all. The main members of the Pistons still had enough physical strength to match the substitutes.

For the first time in the playoffs, the former head coach returns, and face is always given.

Amid the cheers from the Palace of Auburn Hills, all the Pistons players raised their hands.

The winner takes away all the glory, and the loser licks his wounds alone. It has always been a portrayal of sports. Carlisle did not comfort today's loss. It is worthless. He is more worried than the immediate failure.

It is not surprising that in the 7 games, it is not surprising to lose 1 or 2 times, and even lose 2 games back to Indiana Carlisle.

Artest is also in his twenties. After playing in the NBA for so many years, Carlisle thought that no matter how big he is, he should play well in the playoffs, but this blind self-confidence directly killed today's game. Carlisle made a budget error, which will have an impact on the next game. How to play the next game has also become a big problem.

The combination of Lin Sa and Max, and Ben Galashid Wallace and Gal Lin Sa, one attack and one defense, is too difficult to carry out confrontation. To put it bluntly, the Pacers still lack someone who can catch up with Lin Sa and pester him in any position.

Carlisle originally planned to give this burden to Artest, but Artest was as restless as an adolescent child when he was teased, completely like a novice. On the contrary, Lin Sa remained calm and could win and lose one after another. Compared with Artest, he looked more like a steady NBA veteran.

Tactics always need to be executed by people. No matter how hard Carlisle tries to plan, the final victory or defeat will still fall on the players.

The Pistons won the victory, and everyone was going to go out to relax. After all, the G2 game was four days away, but Lin Sa was obviously not in a good mood. After a battle meeting, he went home alone.

On the other side, the first game between the Timberwolves and the Lakers has also begun. In this game, Garnett played his domineering MVP. With his amazing amount of exercise, he seemed to be a shadow of himself.

However, it was useless. In this game, Naka was restricted by the Timberwolves' zone defense and hit the iron frequently. However, O'Neal received most of the rebounds and grabbed 12 in the half.

Garnett was angry and upset. Looking at these teammates, he was about to explode, but he had no choice but to work harder and harder to suppress his temper, otherwise this year would be another hopeless year.

In the second half, the Minnesota's zone defense tactics opened up, and the inside man cut O'Neal's receiving route, which made the game slightly better, and even tied it for a while, but with the feel of the shot, a wave of 6 of 5 shots made the Timberwolves autistic again.

After a wave of ups and downs, in the final fourth quarter, the Timberwolves confessed that although Garnett played the entire game and scored a super double-double of 32 points and 14 rebounds, he had no hope at all under the combination of Sharks and Snidgets. He successfully defeated Los Angeles 0-1.

After the game, Garnett locked himself in the bathroom for an entire hour. Everyone thought he would lose his temper, but no, he just went home with the basketball in silence.

On the court, Garnett has vented his anger. Now, he blames himself more. If he didn't have that damn contract back then, he wouldn't be so isolated and helpless this year, and even became a target of public criticism. However, what makes Garnett even more sad is that he doesn't regret it. If he does it again, he will still win that contract, and he will still enter the current situation.

On the court at home, Garnett hugged the basketball and cried silently. He... also wanted a championship. He didn't want to be like Miller, who would never wake up from that impossible dream, and he didn't want to be like Malone, who had reached the age of retirement, but his hands were still bald.

Garnett, so unwilling.

Lin Sa returned home, secretly practiced for himself for two more hours, and then lay down on the sofa. Before, even if he was alone at home, he would always look forward to it. When he picked up his mobile phone, there would always be a number he wanted to dial. But now, it seemed that there was nothing to do, and he was too lazy to move. Lin Sa just slept like this all night.

The next day, he managed to catch a cold….

This time Lin Sa was no longer a monster. The Pistons and the Pacers were at the moment when bayonets were popular. He dared to catch a cold, and Old Brown dared to tear him up. He was so flustered. Immediately, Lin Sa called Bill Duffy to find a private doctor.

The thermometer measured a fever of 39 degrees, and Lin Sa had a feeling of "sooner or later pill". Although the game will not be sluggish because of the absence of Lin Sa, it is impossible to justify the situation at this time, and the first team is not bad.

Sure enough pills.

Stumbling, Lin Sa brought himself a cup of hot water very independently. After all, in his previous life, he heard that as long as he drank hot water, he would get better. However, at 39°, even if Lin Sa was physically strong, he could not do many things by himself.
